WEBSTER ‘MAKING A DIFFERENCE’

Webster Bank gave $143,000 to help feed the hungry in the fourth quarter of 2010. And in December, its employees completed their annual “Making a Difference” food drive, collecting almost eight tons of donated items. Websterˆ’s Customer Care Center in Wallingford collected 2,300 items after seven teams of employees struck up a friendly rivalry to see who could collect the most food. The result was a 40 percent increase over what the Customer Care Center collected last year. Pictured, from left, with food collected at Webster’s offices at 132 Grand St. in Waterbury are employees Melinda Carrington, Shane Engstrom, Megan Erickson, Joshua Esposito, Deborah Diamante, Bill Bowker, Anne Slattery, Mark Sanchioni, Chris Beede, Jami Dohoney, Anne Capozzi, Dane Silcox, and Michael Fitzsimmons.
